    I was very interested in the Android operating system,
    I got help from YouTube on multibooting using Grub2win.
    There are currently 3 operating systems installed in my laptop.
    The first hard disk is equipped with an operating system called Windows 10.
    LineageOS and PrimeOS are installed on the second SSD.
    Third hard, it was divided into four partitions.
    The last area is a data zone formatted with NTFS
    and the other three are the areas where ext4 Android OS will be installed.
    I have tried installing Android on the third hard drive several times, but it was never successful.
    I don't know if it's physically impossible to install on the third hard drive,
    or if it's because I'm immature with Grub2win.

    Hi,

    "I have tried installing Android on the third hard drive several times, but it was never successful."

    What was the error message when you tried to install Android to the third hard drive?
    A screenshot taken with your phone may help.

    Also, please run the Grub2Win diagnostics and send the file to me.
    I need the full diagnostic file to understand your system.

    I noticed that you have four EFI partitions.
    This is not a good idea. You should consider combining them into a single EFI partition.

    Please let me know.

    Thanks,

    Dave

    Hi again,

    I still need the diagnostics to understand your system.

    Please click the blue "Diagnostics" button on the main screen.

    Then send me the C:\grub2\diagnose.7z file.

    Thanks again,

    Dave

    I guess, I touched grub2win with various programs to install PhoenixOS on the third hard disk.

    Hi again,

    I looked through your diagnostics.

    The problem seems to be on your disk 3 partition 1. It does not have any filesystem I can see.
    Ususally these partitions are FAT or NTFS or EXT4 or btrfs formatted.

    GNU Grub cannot read the partition. This is the reason for the "no such device" error.

    How was the partition on disk 3 partition 1 created?

    Please let me know.

    Thanks,

    Dave

    Hi again,

    There appears to be an issue with your Disk 3 Partition 1.

    GNU Grub is unable to read the partition at boot time.

    Your BIOS firmware is very old. This may possibly be the cause of the read problems.

    You can update your firmware. Here is a link to the LG firmware site.

    http://gscs-b2c.lge.com/downloadFile?fileId=KRSWD000013880-b1-a1.zip

    If GNU Grub cannot read the partition, Grub2Win will not work for you.

    Thanks,

    Dave

    The EFI partition on the third hard disk was erased using EasyUEFI
    After installing PrimeOS on Windows 10,
    Several PrimeOS loaders were shown, so I disabled them using EasyUEFI. The PrimeOS loader came back to life even after I deleted the menu.

    Hi again,

    I would suggest using the Linux gparted utility to format this partition.

    Gparted is very reliable and creates partitions that comply with standards.
    Other utilities sometimes create patitions that are incorrectly formatted.

    Hope this helps,

    Dave

    I formatted the hard disk and reinstalled Windows 10.
    The second ssd is also formatted, and I made 1 ext4 partition.
    Format the third hard as well. I created 3 ext partitions and 1 ntfs partition.
    Last time, there was no content in the diagnose.7z file, but when I formatted my laptop and installed grub2win, a lot of the contents were compressed in diagnose.7z.

    lineage runs fine on grub2win.

    PhoenixOS and RemixOS installed on the third hard disk did not work and only displayed the same error message as last time.

    Hi again,

    I'm away on vacation through November 15. Very limited computer access.

    I will have a look when I return.

    For other OS, there are various boot options,
    Android86 has another boot option using grub2win
    I wonder if there is.
